Backpackers FC is a great idea for new arrivals to Perth that want to play football and meet some new people. People that are here long term will have a different perception on Backpackers FC than a backpacker. At the end of the day though whatever your reason is for playing you can meet people and hang out while enjoying a bit of footy!

Backpackers FC's 11-a-side team play in Perth's Sunday Amateur League.

The club was set up to give overseas players living and working in Perth the opportunity to play and socialise with other visitors to Perth.

In 2014 the first and reserve team squads include players from 12 different countries!

The 2014 squad is 50% players in Perth on temporary visas e.g. working holiday (aka backpackers!), international students and expats (employee sponsored temporary residents aka 457's), and 50% permanent visa holders (mainly migrants who have made Perth there home but we do have plenty of real Australian's!

Players based overseas should check out our international recruitment page on Facebook or contact us to find out how we can help you join Backpackers FC.
